Other meals the troops have received courtesy of a contractor selected by the Democrat run D.C. government are leaving the troops malnourished. The problem with the undercooked food has being going for weeks but apparently yesterday\u2019s meals were so bad they prompted a staff sergeant to contact the Detroit news station.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_583632\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-583632\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Michigan-Guard-Raw-Food-Screen-Image-WXYZ-TV-03012021-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"384\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-583632\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-583632\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Raw chicken from a meal served troops on February 13, screen image via WXYZ-TV.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Guard troops are being kept in D.C. because the Democrats in total control of the federal and local government fear a reprise of the storming of the Capitol that took place January 6.

Other meals are described as a dinner roll and Sunny D.

The firsthand accounts and pictures of undercooked food being served clearly shows that what is being given to Michigan\u2019s service members is unacceptable. As soon as the first reports were received, Governor Gretchen Whitmer called Acting Secretary of the Army John E. Whitley to communicate Michigan\u2019s concerns. Other Michigan senior leaders also engaged at the highest levels of the federal government to inform those in charge and to ensure that they knew of our displeasure with the conditions. Every assurance was given that the issue would be addressed and corrected.<\/p>\n<p>The Post Inaugural Security Mission is a multi-state taskforce, including Michigan\u2019s 1000 personnel, under the command and control of the Washington D.C. National Guard. A decision was made by the leadership in Washington, D.C., to provide contracted meal service for the troops there. This contract was awarded and is monitored by the National Guard Bureau. Michigan\u2019s Adjutant General has communicated all concerns directly to the Chief of the National Guard, General Daniel R. Hokanson, who has engaged to address the reported shortcomings of the current food service contract.<\/p>\n<p>The health and wellbeing of our Michigan National Guard service members is paramount to their success as they continue to serve in missions in the United States and around the globe. Senior leaders of the Michigan National Guard will remain personally engaged with this issue and will continue to push for accountability and a solution to the ill-prepared meals being served.<\/p>\n<p>The troops are scheduled to return back to Michigan shortly after March 12, the agreed upon end date for this deployment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile this is the fluff D.C. media on Capitol Hill are posting:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A mallard duck walks by a member of the Michigan National Guard at the Capitol Reflecting Pool on Monday, March 1, 2021. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fOxRxp7V1A\">pic.twitter.com\/fOxRxp7V1A<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tom Williams (@pennstatetom) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pennstatetom\/status\/1366450857114542090?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 1, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Previously Guard troops on Capitol Hill were forced to take their breaks in frigid open air parking garages.
